ISA conference to be held in Abu Dhabi

March 13, 2015 - The International Society of Automation (ISA) and DMS Global, a global marketing specialist for the energy sector, have finalized an agreement to organize the ISA Automation Conference and Exhibition, Europe, Middle East and Africa 26-27 May 2015 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
The event promises to be the only full-scale technical conference and tradeshow in the area of Europe, the Middle East and Africa during 2015 dedicated to process automation and the latest technologies in measurement and control.

“This conference will be a unique opportunity for professionals throughout the local area and region involved in the automation field to learn, exchange experiences and network with peers from all over the world,” says Tim Feldman, ISA’s Director of Global Products & Services, who spoke at the agreement signing.

The event will be attended by regional and international experts and decision makers who will share their experiences and visions, and present their solutions to the challenges of measurement and control in complex industrial environments. The two-day event will include a content-rich technical conference and product exhibition.

Mohammed Loch, President and CEO of DMS Global, also made a statement at the signing, emphasizing: “There are many ‘mega events’ in the energy sector that are too general. The events division of DMS Global aims to facilitate the gathering of industry leaders and experts for specific communities to give them more focus to achieve their objectives. When it comes to process automation, there is no association greater than the International Society of Automation. We are thrilled at the opportunity to support them in promoting their field.”

The event is expected to attract hundreds of delegates from various end-user companies and vendors across the Middle East and beyond. It also offers a unique opportunity for automation professionals, equipment manufacturers and service providers to share and exchange insights and experiences, and explore the latest products and most recent innovations and technologies.
